Lions are native to Africa, and are not naturally occuring in America.

A fair amount live in zoos, parks and private Collections.


There's also a big cat called a Mountain Lion, which is native to America.

Yes, quite a lot of them actually, but not in the wild. They are in private zoos and collections along with public zoos and collections. The actual number will never be known as some collectors have them illegally by various means.There are also Mountain Lions also known as cougars and pumas. Which are WILD

Lions are not present in the wild in USA. Lions currently live in the wild only in the forests of Africa and India. All lions that lived in USA were wiped out centuries ago. However, zoo's across the USA still have lion exhibits that house a few hundred lions at max.

Lions do not live on every continent. Australia and Antarctica doesn't have lions.

Well, Australia will have some in zoos, but not naturally.

No, the lion has been extinct in North America for many thousands of years. The cougar, a lion relative, does live in North America, however.
